"Selling newspapers! Selling newspapers! Freshly released Datang Daily! Today's headline-Shengshang ‘desire’ sent naval forces to **** the fleet south to exchange food, private merchant ships can also sign up to participate!"
early morning.
The newspaper boy happily sold newspapers, awakening the somewhat unconscious pedestrians who had just gotten up from the "bed". Today’s headlines are particularly attractive. First of all, this is the first time that Baixin has used this method to understand the latest decree issued by the imperial court. On the other hand, the decree itself is already very attractive.
sends an army to **** the merchant ship trade, which is unheard of by the common people and merchants!
"Little six, go buy a newspaper for the old man!"
Inside a luxurious carriage, there was a hearty voice.
"Yes, sir!"
Today's interested businessmen, after hearing the headlines in the newspapers, one after another sent small servants to buy newspapers.
Drunk Xianlou.
" Within five days, the imperial court will prepare a fleet of 500 large ships. Seven days later, Hejian County King Li Xiaogong personally led 20,000 navy troops to **** the fleet southward and exchange silk porcelain for food. Nanyang In a small country, rice is cooked three times in one season, spices are everywhere like grass, a silk or a piece of porcelain can be exchanged for dozens of dans of grain, countless spices, sizzle~! The wild land of the South China Sea is so rich? Brother Zhihua, you go north and south , I have broad knowledge, is what this newspaper says is true?"
A middle-aged man with a rich body in blue, holding a newspaper, reading this, couldn't help asking in surprise.
The thin man across from him was reading the newspaper seriously, and he said without raising his head: "It should be true. What I said above, I've heard a lot of Haike talk before. Besides, this newspaper comes from Bizarre Culture, and Bizarre Culture is the property of Lord Li Jue. The old man is quite sure that these news will definitely not be fake!"
These two people are the first group of regular customers to taste the drunk of the gods. They are also wealthy businessmen, otherwise they would not come to the restaurant downstairs every day.
"Then why don't you see the caravan go south to purchase goods?"
Feng Zhihua said in a huff: "Brother Xifan, don't you think about it. The vast sea is full of dangers, and there are often pirates. Which caravan dare to go out to sea?"
"Oh, that's how it is!"
"But now, these problems are no longer a problem! Xifan, you will look down. The important officials of the court agree that 500 large ships are far from enough. They specially recruited merchant ships from the civilian population and went south with the army. , The army will protect the safety of merchant ships. The profits from the trade of various caravans only need to pay half of the merchant tax to the court. Merchants who are willing to join the court fleet must report to the Ministry of War within seven days. My merchant ship was sent to the Bahe River in the east of the city, and went south with the army seven days later! This is a business that will never lose money! And it is still huge profits!"
Feng Zhihua sighed after reading this news.
"Brother Zhihua, do you want to join us? Brother remember that there are more than a dozen big ships in your family that often transport goods on the Grand Canal, right?"
Liao Xifan answered.
Feng Zhihua pondered for a moment, he patted the table and said:
"Participate, why don’t you participate? Xifan, if you want to go, brother, there are channels to help you get eight big ships in a short time. It depends on whether you want to! If you believe in your brother, Just walk south with my brother, there will definitely be dozens of times of huge profits!"
Liao Xifan happily said: "Believe it and believe it, of course the younger brother believes in Brother Zhihua! The younger brother is willing to go south with the older brother!"
"Haha, that's good! Brother, I have to go and "get" a few more ships. By the way, I will buy more porcelain and silk. Let's start now!"
"Brother Zhihua, wait a minute! Look at the following news: The court issued a government decree to encourage the people to raise'chickens' on a large scale. For every 100'chickens' raised in a household, the tax will be reduced by 10% next year. When renting, Guli is counting the number of surviving chickens in each household and reporting it to the local county government. The county government will reduce or exempt the corresponding taxes that year based on the number reported! Brother Zhihua, what does the imperial decree mean? Why am I getting more and more incomprehensible, brother?"
Feng Zhihua paused, read the news carefully, and couldn't help but frown: "I don't understand the imperial court's move, what's the intention!"
Liao Xifan pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "Brother Zhihua, brother thinks this is profitable! How about we sell ‘chicken’ seedlings?"
Feng Zhihua was stunned when he heard the words, but after a while, he still shook his head and said: "No, we have run out of time recently. Compared with the small amount of money earned by selling'chicken' seedlings, I still made preparations for merchant ships to go south for trade. More, that's dozens of times the profit! Xifan, you should seriously prepare to go south!"
Liao Sifan thought for a while, and felt that it was so, so he nodded and said: "Brother Zhihua said it is very true, you can't lose big because of small things!"
"Ergou baby, I bought a newspaper by the way into the city today. Come read this newspaper to me, what did you say?"
Liujia Village.
A dark-skinned man in his thirties greeted a ten-year-old bear boy next to him and said.
"Okay! Ershu Liu, show me the newspaper, I haven't read it today!"
Kiddy Bear heard that there were free newspapers to read, and it should be free to read, and he was immediately excited.
"Pop!"
The dark-skinned man irritably hammered Ergou’s head with the rolled newspaper, and said with a smile:
"Look at your size! All day long, I know that I don’t know how to go to school. If you let your father know, you have to beat your boy's ass! You should read to Lao Tzu what was written in today's newspaper, and then go! "
"Oh~!"
The bear kid ‘kneaded’ his head and ‘rubbed’ his head sullenly, then he held the newspaper and wondered: "Second Uncle, where do I start reading!"
"Let's start reading from that headline. I heard that newsboy in the city today said that he wanted to recruit merchant ships to go south, you kid, read it!"
The dark guy thought for a while and said.
Ergouwazi searched for a while, found today’s headlines, and began to read: "Within five days, the court will prepare a fleet of 500 large ships~ IndoMTL.com~ Seven days later, the King of Hejian County Li Xiaogong personally led 20,000 naval forces to **** the fleet southward and exchanged silk porcelain for grain"
"Tsk tsk, it’s a pity that I don’t have a boat, old man, otherwise I can follow the imperial army to Nanyang and make a fortune! Ergou, continue reading, next!"
The dark guy sighed after hearing the headlines.
"The imperial court issued a decree to encourage the people to raise'chickens' on a large scale. For every 100'chickens' raised in a household, the tax will be reduced by 10% next year. When the rent is collected next year, each li is counting the surviving households. The number of'chickens' is reported to the local county government, and the county government will reduce or exempt the corresponding taxes in the current year based on the number reported!"
"Stop! Ergou, are you right? That's what it says?"
The dark-skinned man was excited like a 300-jin child at the moment. He held Ergouwazi’s shoulders and said ‘excitedly’.
"It hurts, it hurts, uncle, you let go first!"
The tears of the bear child’s pain almost flowed out, he said quickly.
The dark man let go of his hand in a jealousy, and said: "Ah, then you can see if it is like what you said just now!"
Kiddy bear looked at it again, and after confirming that it was correct, he affirmed: "Second Uncle, that's what I said, I must be correct. Hey, Second Uncle, where are you going? Did you not want your newspaper?"
"Haha, my child, give me the money quickly, I want to go into the city to buy ‘chicken’ seedlings!"
The excitement cheers of the dark-skinned man spread far away.
Today is doomed to be unrest. The two imperial decrees written on it, like a storm, instantly swept the entire Chang'an City and the surrounding villages of Chang'an City!
